Uno De 50 Connection Collection is Drool-worthy!

The first time I learned about the Spanish accessories brand Uno De 50 was during my visit at their SM Mall of Asia Branch (post HERE).  I took home my first piece of Uno De 50 accessory and wore it so many times because it reminded me so much of my love for Blogging. Blogging has brought me to so many places and I get to know so many people.  Yes, I do connect accessories, clothing, fragrance and makeup with important events in my life.

That's why I can definitely connect with Uno de 50's AW 2014 collection.

 

"The search for yourself, a journey without a map or a compass involves connecting with your surroundings.
You are not in the environment, you are part of it.  What at one point was contact or the senses has now become a connection."

Uno De 50 looks inside each person to show us that what defines us is not an accessory, but these accessories are part of us. 





You can definitely see handcraft goodness in each accessory.

Something New: Belo Collagen Drink





Everyone who lives in the Philippines (or even outside of the country) probably heard about Belo!  I mean who doesn't?  Belo prettified so many celebrities at times I wonder, if I'll end up going through those non-invasive/invasive treatments in the future.  (That's a whole different topic so I'm not going there!)

When Belo came up with products, I got so excited because these are the products you can easily find in the market and they are inexpensive!  One Belo product that I tried, tested and really love is the Belo SunExpert!  I used these sun protection product during our SampleRoom #SplashofSummer beach trip and mind you, I got home looking like I never left home!  *lol*


Then, I heard Belo came up with more products ready to touch every single beauty-enthusiast.  This time,the Belo Nutra products.

Dr. Vicki Belo has created the Belo Nutraceuticals: Glutathione + Collagen, a first in a line of dietary supplements that aims to beautify from within.  These pills provide whitening plus anti-ageing in one capsule. 

Of course I didn't drink any of these when these were launched because I was breastfeeding Baby AMW at that time and I just want to be safe so I've given mine away to my mom-in-law and so far, she finished all 30 capsules and told me she didn't feel any side effects.  There wasn't any "obvious results" because she just finished 30 capsules and didn't go for more.

Happy Skin Forbidden Fruit Set


Hi AMW Friends!
When I posted on Instagram Happy Skin's newest Forbidden Fruit set that includes 3 Holiday Lippies, I got loads of queries on how the shades particularly look and the difference between the old and the new!  

I want to congratulate Happy Skin again for such a ground-breaking product as almost everyone I know who loves makeup own at least ONE Shut Up & Kiss Me Lippie!

Don't get me wrong, I get these for free to review but I have repurchased some of the shades as gifts and some were set aside for my makeup clients!  (Hint: I repurchased Valentine Kiss 2x and I own another Honeymoon Glow for backup!) 

Back to the Holiday Set!  Forbidden Fruit, I can imagine, will fly off the shelves!  All 3 shades are wearable not only for the Holidays but all-year-round!  And here's the great news!  These 3 shades are NOT Limited Edition so don't worry, you can purchase and repurchase them anytime of the year! 

BUT, if you want this tin can (I will definitely use this to store my falsies!)  You have to buy them this Holiday season!  



Included are Shut Up & Kiss Me Lippies in ---
Mistletoe Kiss
Under the Sheets
Naughty and Nice

Description printed at the back of the tin can.

H&M Finally in the Philippines! #HMPhilippines

I wore really comfortable clothes and shoes during the VIP event for H&M Philippines!  I was indeed, super ready to shop!

Everyone's crazy about the arrival of H&M in the Philippines and the day will finally be here!  Mark your calendars --- October 17, 2014 H&M Megamall Branch will open its doors at 9:00am!  

If you get easily sidetracked with clothes after clothes, well, I've taken ENOUGH photos for you to at least have an idea on what H&M Philippines has in store for you, at the same time, you can also take a peek on the really low price range!  My eyes literally popped when I saw tops priced at Php299.00, dresses priced at Php599.00, coats at Php1,299.00 and hair accessories for less than Php250.00!  You just have to really search from aisle to aisle, racks after racks!  

I know, I should just stop talking and share photos!  Enjoy!

Oh wait, some tips for you not to get "lost" during that day ---
First floor - Ladies, Accessories, Lingerie, Shoes
Second floor - Ladies
Third Floor - Kids and Infant wear, Men

Each floor has their own set of cashier, if you want shorter line, go straight to the 3rd level as lesser people line up there! (not always though)
 **warning, so many photos ahead!
